Arden-Charmichael News A year ago, I made the resolution to see things with clear 20/20 vision with the new year and to treat my little world with the most kindness I could give. Little did I know that the coronavirus I had heard about on the other side of the world

would turn into a full-blown pandemic.

In these unprecedented times, we have seen death, unemployment, under-employment, growing homelessness, social unrest. Whether a pandemic, a natural disaster or any other traumat-

New Habitat Restoration Project Nurtures Record Number of Salmon Nests Kat Perkins, a scientist with the Sacramento Water Forum, poured over an aerial image of the lower American River near Sailor Bar in Fair Oaks, looking for redds—underwater depressions or “nests” created by female salmon to lay their eggs. Part of an annual ritual to systematically count redds first by inspecting aerial imagery and then in person, in 2019 she found zero.

This year was a different story—the area teamed with redds—more than 345 this time around.

The difference? A new habitat restoration effort completed in fall to protect salmon and steel-

head in the lower American River, spearheaded by the Water Forum in partnership with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and other federal, state and local agencies. Over three weeks in September, the project placed more than 14,000 cubic yards of cleaned and sorted gravel into the river and carved out a new side channel to help fish spawn and rear their young. “ The results are gratifying,” said Tom Gohring, Executive Director of the Water Forum, a nearly 20-year-old organization that represents a diverse group of local water providers, environmen-

I hope you enjoy some highlights from this year’s Ledger, and here’s to a happy new year and the health of the city.

tal organizations and governments focused on safeguarding the lower American River for both drinking water and wildlife. “Salmon were here long before we were.

Nurturing their survival is not only important to sustaining a species but to also sustaining our region’s identity and quality of life.”

The lower American River is home to 43 fish species, including struggling fall-run Chinook salmon and federally threatened Central Valley steelhead, and is a major water supply source for nearly 2 million people. The river and parkway, which runs 23 miles along the river’s shores, hosts up to 8 million visitors and brings $364 million into the economy each year.

The restoration project at Sailor Bar is part of the Water Forum’s ongoing science program that uses cutting-edge techniques to further understand how to improve the river’s environment for fish survival. Over the past several decades Water Forum studies have produced desee SALMON page 3 Valley Community Newspapers, Inc.

tailed information about the conditions salmon and steelhead find ideal for spawning and rearing their young, including: Detailed underwater maps of the lower American River to identify the best locations for enhancing habitat that also won’t impact flood safety.

The ideal size of gravel and river flow for spawning.

How long it takes for salmon to use a restoration site after construction, and how long they continue to use the site.

How cover (woody material, branches or tree roots) in a side channel improves survival for juvenile fish.

This year’s effort at Sailor Bar was the region’s ninth project restoring fish spawning gravel

beds and improving juvenile fish rearing habitat on the lower American River.

Since 2008, the Water Forum and its partners have invested more than $7 million to create over 30 acres of spawning beds and 1.2 miles of side channels. “ These projects truly represent what can be accomplished when local, state and federal agencies work together toward a common purpose,” Gohring said, noting that the team responsible for this project includes scientists from Reclamation, the Water Forum, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, National Marine Fisheries Service and California Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Additional project partners included the Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency (SAFCA) and Sacramento County Parks, as well as the City of Sacramento Department of

environmentalists, water managers and local governments working together to balance two co-equal objectives: to provide a reliable and safe water supply for the Sacramento region’s long-term growth and economic health; and to preserve the fishery, wildlife, recreational, and aesthetic values of the lower American River.

Marilyn Best, Longest Standing Board Member of the Sacramento Youth Symphony “Her love, dedication, positive outlook, and generosity have had a lasting impact on the Sacramento Youth Symphony and its thousands of students over the course of three decades of service.” - Sacramento Youth Symphony Marilyn Best, the longest standing Board Member of the Sacramento Youth Symphony (SYS), has served the organization tirelessly with her wisdom and calm presence. Over the years, Marilyn has supported the SYS with her time, experience, counsel, financial support, and has opened up her home for charitable events and meetings. “ The SYS musicians are a blessing to the community,” she said. “ They are special and doing something good through music.” Her status as a longstanding Board member and generous donor puts her in a unique position to garner support from others. She is a fundraising dynamo! Each year she rallies support from many local businesses to support the goals of the Sacramento Youth Symphony and secure funding for its scholarship program. Marilyn considers it a privilege to support the students who dedicate their time to music education and appreciation.

Marilyn was born to a family with great appreciation for music. Franklin Morris Rowles, her father, was one of the Sacramento Symphony Association’s first presidents.

Shortly after, he advocated for a youth symphony in Sacramento and under4

wrote the first series of concerts called “Symphony Concerts for Young People.” Clare Rowles, Marilyn’s mother served on the Association for many years and received several “Distinguished Service” awards.

As a child Marilyn learned to play the piano and later made sure to foster a love of music in her children. Her son, Glenn, and two daughters, Lonnie and Cindy, all received piano lessons when they were growing up. Glenn plays the clarinet and saxophone for his community orchestra in Germany, and several of her grandchildren play orchestral instruments. Marilyn is a proud grandma. Smiling broadly, she admits she is spoiled by her thirty-four grandchildren and greatgrandchildren living in California, Boston and Germany.

In 1960, she and her three young children moved to Geneva, Switzerland, after her husband’s passing. She planned to live there for only a year but ended up staying for twenty-three years. Her children had the opportunity to study at the Geneva Conservatory of Music and she learned to play the pipe organ from one of its teachers. In Geneva, she served as Assistant Committee on Publication for The First Church of Christ, Scientist throughout Switzerland. She was also a substitute organist.

Marilyn knew the pastor of the World Council of Churches in Geneva and got to know people from that organization. “Get-

Arden-Carmichael News • January 15, 2021 • www.valcomnews.com

ting to know people from 10 -15 different countries was quite the privilege,“ she said.

An active person all her life, Marilyn has enjoyed playing tennis, swimming, and ballroom dancing.

She loves the company of people and personifies the perfect community volunteer, giving her time, talent and treasure.

Marilyn is a woman of humility, strong faith in God and is full of love for everyone. She lives a life of service to the community, always believing there is more she can do. For Marilyn, being a Board member “is an opportunity to help young people share their musical talents and focus on a life of giving,” adding that “a life of giving is worthwhile.”

The SYS surprised Marilyn in early 2020 by dedicating their winter concerts to her. Marilyn was very surprised by the public recognition of her service, and when invited to say a few words, shifted the attention away from herself, thanking the young musicians, the parents, and the audience.

Marilyn later remarked that she was “touched by the recognition of her faithful support to the organization and was truly overwhelmed by all the attention she had received.”

Marilyn Best loves orchestral music. She loves the Sacramento Youth Symphony. And the feeling is mutual. She is widely respected and admired.

Founded in 1956 as a 55-member youth orchestra, the Sacramento Youth Symphony has five orches-

tras/ensembles and serves more than 400 talented young musicians from all over the Sacramento Valley region. SYS offers beginning through advanced orchestral ensembles and presents more than 20 concerts per year under the baton of some of the best music educators and conductors in the region.

Marilyn hopes to see more

students enrolled in the different ensembles and more community support for the organization.

The Sacramento Youth Symphony could not offer the same level of service without the dedication and support of Board members and volunteers such as Marilyn Best. We are forever grateful to her.

ARC Theatre Goes Online with Stunning, Relevant Production of “Fires in the Mirror” The New York Times described Anna Deavere Smith’s Fires in the Mirror as “...quite simply, the most compelling and sophisticated view of racial and class conflict that one could hope to encounter,” and American River College (ARC) Theatre’s production of the work honors that legacy in every way. The play was available for online streaming on October 9, 10, 16, and 17.

Produced amidst the current outcry to violence against Blacks in America, this moving piece of “documentary theater” was written in 1991 during and after the race riots in Crown Heights (Brooklyn), New York. These riots began after the deaths of a Black American boy and a young Orthodox Jewish scholar in a small corner of New York, but reflected the pent-up tensions from a much greater area. Smith interviewed more than 50 people, ulti-

mately honing the play into 26 monologues taken verbatim from the interviews.

Although the riots were between the Black and Jewish communities decades ago, the voice of each interviewed person rings with a truth that modern audiences have found both powerful and chilling.

Director Sam Williams’ passion for and approach to Fires in the Mirror drew the attention not only of local student actors but of ARC Theatre’s alums from across the country as well.

Thus, actors from New York and Chicago are featured alongside local community theater veterans and experienced college actors. Originally, Anna Deavere Smith performed all 26 “characters” herself. In this production, the many Black and Jewish people featured are played by men and women of multiple ages and ethnicities. Smith’s interviews

included both the wellknown and the unknown, including people connected directly with riots as well as those on the fringes whose lives were greatly affected. Portrayals of Reverend Al Sharpton, playwrights George C. Wolfe and Ntozake Shange, and activists Angela Davis and Sonny Carson appear, as do author Letty Cottin Pogrebin, Rabbis Shea Hecht and Joseph Spielman, and physicist Aaron Bernstein. We also meet local residents from both communities, including Carmel Cato, whose 7-year-old son was killed in the traffic accident that sparked the riot, and Norman Rosenbaum, whose brother was killed the same day.

ARC’s production of Fires in the Mirror, which also featured original music by David Williams, was available through the publisher’s streaming service.

7 Rio Raiders Signed Letters of Intent to Play Sports at Choice Colleges

By Mark DeVaughn

On Feb. 5, Rio Americano High School joined high schools nationwide in hosting a milestone event: National Signing Day. The annual rite of passage sees high school seniors sign their National Letter of Intent (NLI), thereby committing to play intercollegiate athletics for their college-of-choice. Signing the paperwork officially ends the recruiting journey.

Seven Raider athletes signed their NLI paperwork.

Here is a closer look at each accomplished senior.

Sophia Karperos Sport: Cross Country/Track College: Yale

Mitchell Dixon Sport: Football College: UC Davis Standing 6-foot-4 and weighing 220 pounds, Dixon stands out on campus not typically known for football success. Asked to explain why he decided against attending nearby football powers like Jesuit or Capital Christian, the second-generation Rio athlete affirmed the power of loyalty: “When I start something, I want to finish it,” said Dixon, whose mom, Mary, was a Raiders tennis player.

In choosing UC Davis, Dixon turned down offers from Wyoming and University of San Diego. Rio head coach Sammie Stroughter said the strong-armed passer will “run a Fortune 500 company someday.”

8

Alyssa Escay Sport: Cross Country/Track College: St. Mary’s College Alyssa Escay got a head start on distance running success. Her father, Anton, coaches Rio track and cross country. Mom Angela nearly qualified for the 2012 Olympic trials in the marathon. Still, she carved out her own impressive legacy.

Alyssa qualified for the state championship cross country meet three times. She’ll compete in both cross country and track for the Gaels, who don’t award scholarships to incoming freshmen.

“The recruiting process was stressful, it felt like a job interview at times,” she said.

But I’m excited for the next step. It’s where I’m supposed to be.”

Arden-Carmichael News • January 15, 2021 • www.valcomnews.com

Long before growing her athletic talents in high school, Karperos had big plans for her future beyond it. “Yale has been my dream school since I was in second grade,” she affirmed. Like Escay, Karperos was a mainstay for the Raiders’ cross country and track programs. She qualified three times for the state cross country meet.

But devoting so much time to sports left no time for another passion: politics.

Karperos will study political science, but didn’t have time to run for student government at Rio. “I’ve always wanted to be a politician,” she said.

Carly Kissinger Sport: Soccer College: UC Merced The senior steadied the Raider ship from her midfielder spot. The fouryear varsity player took all set pieces for the Capital Athletic League runners-up. While she failed to win a league crown for the first time in her varsity career, Kissinger embraced a leadership role on new head coach Pete McNamee’s club. At UC Merced, she’ll join former El Camino High star Maddie Door. Kissinger hopes to study public health in college before pursuing a career in nursing or law enforcement. “I want to serve my community and help people,” she said.

Andrew Nelson Sport: Soccer College: UC Riverside Nelson started going to the gym in sixth grade; It shows. The 6-foot-1, 170-pounder used his physical presence to become one of the section’s top defenders.

“I don’t want to be too big, but I want to be strong,” explained Nelson, who played two years for the Sacramento Republic’s academy team. Nelson provided head coach Antonio Sutton with unique versatility. The senior also saw time at forward, the same position older brother Nick Nelson (Rio Americano Class of 2016) plays at Cal State Los Angeles. Away from the soccer field, the younger Nelson enjoys snowboarding. see LETTERS page 9

Dance with your heart and your body will follow Mia Michaels, American Choreographer

Peter Poirier Sport: Water Polo College: University of the Pacific Certain players make a coach’s job easier. Peter Poirer brought versatility and a professional mentality to his four seasons on the Raiders’ varsity. The skilled attacker was also a top-notch defender. He finished his senior season as an honorable mention all-Sac-Joaquin Section performer. In his first two seasons, Poirer helped Rio win back-to-back section Division II championship banners (the Raiders finished the decade with seven such titles). “He’s the complete team player,” Taylor said.

Valley Community Newspapers, Inc.

Olivia Seargeant Sport: Water Polo College: UC San Diego Introduced to water polo at age 10, Olivia Sergeant spent the next four years playing soccer as her fall sport-of-choice. She eventually resumed water polo upon enrolling at Rio Americano as a freshman. For the Raiders, she became an All-American and an all-Sac Joaquin Section performer. Her senior season saw Rio capture its 14th section title in 19 seasons. She picked UC San Diego – where she’ll study neuroscience – over Brown and George Washington.

“My path to water polo was an interesting journey I took that I wouldn’t change for anything,” she said.

For Darren Tack the alarm rings early. The Sacramento Ballet trainee practices six hours a day, plus an extra three hours if he’s in a performance. He’s an athlete and an artist. And he works at Round Table Pizza.

This is his life until he completes the Ballet’s two-year training program and rises to the professional level. “It’s a lot of commitment and many of us have after dance jobs but I love it.”

On a sunny February afternoon in 2020, Tack and his fellow trainees performed excerpts from Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake for a delighted crowd of all ages in the East Sacramento Clunie Auditorium. The dancers chose the Spanish and Neapolitan dances from the National Dance scene and the iconic Pas de Quatre of the four cygnets. (The cygnets wore white tutus and feather caps. They clasped hands rose en point and swam across the stage.)

It was difficult to remember the dancers were students. Their hands lengthened their lines and expressed feeling and their feet arched and pointed with flare. Pirouettes, leaps and lifts came off seamlessly. The dancing communicated emotion and energy.

The artists bowed to an ovation and then stepped off the stage and into the crowd. Curious children and adults surrounded them like spokes on a wheel. The smallest children touched the hems of the tutus and stared at the point shoes with wide eyes. Then the older kids peppered the dancers with questions.

How long have you danced? What’s your favorite dance? Where are you from? What’s your favorite ballet?

Ballerina Liberty Richards answered eagerly. “I started when I was four in Peoria, Illinois and I came here in August to join the training program. My favorite ballet is definitely Balanchine’s Stars and Stripes.”

I’ve always wondered what you call a male ballet

dancer. So, I asked. It turns out that the word ballerina is Italian, and the male form is ballerino, but that just sounds weird. Most Americans call themselves ballet dancers or if they want to get fancy the French word, danseur.

Cynthia Dreyer and a cadre of dedicated teachers train the dancers. “ They have a wonderful group of instructors,” said Dreyer.

But the school is not just for the pre-professionals.

“We teach all ages, from four up and a seniors’ program in a partnership with Kaiser hospital.”

Sacramento Ballet brings high-quality modern and classical ballets to the Sacramento region.
